What I do is create my strategies in TradingView because it's more user friendly and I can make changes to data time periods, parameters, indicators and code fairly quick and look at the results compared to changing it in Gekko. Once I get something that works well I just create strategy in Gekko. I always set my data to work on the minute by adjusting the data range (i.e. 2018-01-01 00:00). I can easily see if my code is right by comparing the output from TradingView and Gekko.

So to answer your question TradingView does everything to the minute or in this case to the hour.

What prompted my question was I had a trade that didn't close when it was suppose to. The only thing I can see is that its not starting on the hour. So I'm guessing or hoping I can start it exactly on the hour to clear this up.
